someone couldn't bring himself initially to say under clinton we had great job growth and under obama lousy. that's just him, his natural instinct to to blur the partisan differences. i think that will change in the next debate. >> you definitely will. he will go right at romney. this is going to be an entirely different -- >> i think that's right. one of the other question, will we see a different kind of moderation? this was a brand-new format where jim leer he wanted to get out of the way and said he was effective in doing that. do you agree. >> i completely agree. i thought jim lehrer was absolutely great and it was a relief. i didn't even know in advance that this agreement had been made that the way the moderator would moderate would be a little more laid back. this is what it was. jim lehrer is old school and a pro. he didn't think it was all about him. he department think it was about getting the camera on him. he didn't think it was about him being the anchor with the whip. you know what i mean? he would ask a question and he would let these two guys either challenge each oth

a difficult moment for hillary clinton. her governor in new york was talking about granting licenses. she was not wanting to put herself at odds with her own governor. i asked a question that a moderator might have asked. i think george has it right. the debates that newt gingrich and i went through in the primary process are different than the ones at the presidential level. we're dealing with constituencies where you have to check certain boxes in order to become a credible candidate. when you get to the presidential debate and have been chosen, issues are still very important. but i think george will has it right. at that point, we're looking for something else. these issues become portals of making decisions about whether the individual is capable of taking on the most important job in the world. they're important. it's about character. your ability to express the emotions the country is feeling. the difficulties they're going through. there's a significant difference in my view. in terms of how the public looks at thes

president bush lost his first debate to bill clinton and ross perot. next president bush lost his first debate to john kerry. so when president obama lost his first debate last week to his challenger, mitt romney, that outcome was totally in keeping with the sad, sad incumbent president tradition of getting creamed in their first debate. but what hat means for tonight is that the democrats are looking for a solid performance to try to stop the republican momentum, to try to quash the poll imbalance that romney and ryan have been enjoying since the debate last week even if stephanie cutter tried to tell us a minute ago there was so much bounce. to that end, chuck todd joins us from the debate site with new polling information out today. chuck, what do we know today, chuck? >> i think we know, look, there has been some movement in romney's direction. now, some of it is, i would say, if you look at everything we've learned over the last few days, in our polling, in ohio, florida, and virginia, in the cbs/"new york times" polling, it feels like everything

hillary clinton went to russia to try and convince them not to do so. they thwarted her efforts. she said they were on the wrong side of history. she was right about that. this is one more example of how the russia reset is not working. where are we? after international pressure mounted, president obama said bashar al assad should go. it's been over a year. the man has slaughtered tens of thousands of his own people. and more foreign fighters are spilling into this country. so the longer this has gone on, the more people, groups like al qaeda are going in. we could have more easily identified the free syrian army, the freedom fighters, working with our allies, the turks, the saudis, had we had a better plan in place to begin with working through our allies. but, no, we waited for kofi annan to try and come up with an agreement through the u.n. that bought bashar assad time. we gave russia veto power through the u.n. and meanwhile about 30,000 syrians are dead. >> what would my friend do differently? if you notice, he never answers the question. >> no, i would -- we would not be g
